Ryan Garcia and Devin Haney will look to move closer to an anticipated rematch by fighting on the same card in May. Turki Alalshikh announced the event on Monday evening, saying it will take place at a location to be determined in the United States.

Ryan Garcia and Devin Haney are set to feature in separate bouts on the same fight card in May, potentially setting up a rematch for October.

Ryan Garcia will now box Rolando Romero instead of Isaac Cruz in a Ring Magazine card in May. It will be the first card of its sort since Turki Alalshikh acquired it. Ryan will make his first appearance since last April.

Ryan Garcia and Devin Haney are one step away from throwing down again. The rivals make their return to the ring this May in separate bouts according to an announcement by Saudi Arabian official and boxing promoter Turki Alalshikh.
